Flea Market in Lisbon

A quick drawing at the Feira da Ladra (Flea Market), done with felt tip pens in a new sketchbook that kept me company these past few days in Lisbon. Flea markets have always been one of the most exciting and my favourite places to be whenever I visit any city. I remember being at different Löppis (Sweden), le Marché aux puces (France), el Rastro (Spain)...etc. I wonder: how is your local Flea Market called?

Obrigado Isabel :)
"Marché Chop Chop" é um nome muito divertido!

Thanks Ricky! Flea Markets are incredibly rich places to sketch :)

A Feira da Ladra é mesmo como no teu desenho, quem vende confunde-se com o que vende!

Richard Câmara said...

Tens razão: dito assim, até faz todo o sentido! Quem sabe se no final de Julho te consigo convencer para uma sessão de diários gráficos na Feira da Ladra?! Numa terça ou num sábado de "manhã"... Alinharías?

Thanks Gabi :)
Trust me: Flea markets are a never ending source for interesting and unexpected sketches!
I plan to go back some time soon, maybe even with a portable chair...
Until next post!
